The Fat Boy Slim mix EVA is on BGP records (subsidary of ACE) and was
originally recorded by Jean Jacques Perry on the Moog Indigo album also
recently reisued on BGP. Perrey was also responsible for "The In Sound
from Way Out" experiMENTAL moog album recorded way back in 1966 and
whose title was recently robbed by The Beasties for their own
compilation of album instumental toons.

Personally I think th'original shits all over FatBoy Slims version but
fair play to him 'cause along with the tune being used for lucozade
comercials its caused much deserved re-interest in Perrey of late.
